Now, France rules here. The rubber groves of Xiwei, the rubber sap quietly oozing out, were the industrial raw materials in the 20th century. The French also gave them headlights, the dim light can only illuminate a ray of light, but it is light after all.
In the rowing race, the French military team lost to the skinny Indochinese labor force, a failure that was repeated decades later. Yiling, a French, rejoiced at the victory of Indochina.
France adopted Indochina, and Yiling adopted Kamei. Yiling deeply loves Indochina and her daughter, but she knows that Kamei is about to get married and leave.
With hatred, Zhan abandoned the present France, he vented his depression on the poor of Indochina, and wanted to use paintings to recall the only good childhood. He thought that nothing could change him, including eternal Indochina. But then he fell in love with Indochina, and the lives of two women here.
After a storm of passion, Zhan abandoned Yiling, the old Indochina.
While he fell in love with Kamei, he also merged into the blood of New Indochina. Kamei ran away from her mother Yiling, and they ran towards the distant Tokyo Bay. Endless green grass, rugged rocks, hunger, hope, secret passage, patience, and occasional joy, like the entire history of Indochina, became a legend.
The child is finally born, but the father is arrested immediately, and the old life needs to be poured into the new life, which is the price. Zhan committed suicide by his son's side, giving up his love for Indochina with his own death, old, new, and future.
Yi Ling tried her best to rescue her daughter and save Indochina, which was about to be lost, she would rather give her life. She can only wait, vaguely know the ending of waiting, but she is unwilling to give up.
Several years have passed. After all, it is waiting and being waited for, and the body and mind are all changed. "I threw everything away, I forgot everything." Kamei said, and left decisively. She was like a water lily with its roots cut off, rushing away with the water, and the lotus flower on the surface of the water was still extremely gorgeous.
Yiling returned to France, but only she never left Indochina, old, new, and future.
After the Geneva Accords were signed, France lost Indochina forever, and lost its territory, relations and even title, and later she changed her name to "Vietnam".
Kamei came with the Vietnamese delegation, but Yiling didn't want to see Kamei, so that Indochina could live in Yiling's memory forever - the electric fan blade seen through the gap of the shutter, with each rotation And the light and dark alternated; the shadows of the trees on the yellow walls, swaying and almost melting; the balcony overlooking the rubber plantation, empty in the mist; and the white lounge chair she once sat on, still as white as an old dream. She wears sunglasses to cover her heart, and no longer expresses any feelings easily, so calmly when she recounts the past to her grandson Eddie.
The back of Yiling by the Seine is lonely, but relieved. The flowing water she condensed, like the river in Indochina decades ago, was soothing and open, as if it was formed by the confluence of countless rubber juices. No one was racing on it, and the steamer whistled slowly, unrelated to her, with a dull, long whistle.
Eternal Indochina, lost forever, abandoned forever, gone forever...
